I appreciate it. I do love 4.3, compared to 2.2 it's very clever. I still have this problem of course - and cant' figure it out at all.. I have mgetty configured on the secondary server (on the ethernet), and AutoPPP working fine. I can dial in to the server with a '98 Laptop, and it connects and I can talk to the server - and the server can talk to me. However, that's all I can see. The server can talk to me. I can talk to the server. The server can see the rest of the network, and the internet - ....but nothing else but that server can see me. ========= rc.conf ========= defaultrouter="NO" static_routes="" gateway_enable="YES" router_enable="NO" mrouted_enable="NO" forward_sourceroute="YES" accept_sourceroute="YES" ............................ ======= /etc/ppp/ppp.conf ========= pap: allow users merlin set log Phase Chat Connect IPCP enable pap enable chap enable passwdauth set timeout 900 accept dns accept chap #enable proxy set dns 203.1.96.5 203.1.96.6 set nbns 203.1.96.26 add default HISADDR .............................. When I had the modem, and the same setup on the main server (2.2) it workes fine. Move it to the secondary, almost the same basic setup - and the server seems to be refusing to pass the packets through the system. oh well. One keeps trying I suppose. There's something there I'm missing. In summary: Everything connects fine, just the 4.3 isn't exchanging packets from the ppp interface with the rest of the network. any ideas?
